I got the vaxx as my parents were at risk and I knew someone who has been decimated by long covid , biggest regret of my life easily. Fasting OMAD and four day fasts monthly . Taking nattokinase, vit d, zinc quercetin, niacin, nac and glutathione. If anyone has any other advice that would be greatly appreciated. I never wanted a tiered society for those who were not vaxxed. Please pray for us. Some of us who have woken are trying absolutely everything to detox, nullify effects. Also pray for those afflicted by long covid. Love to all
i'm not a doctor but try nicotine patches, you might start sweating and feeling better. Nicotine is supposed to help against S1 part of the spike "Bruce Patterson suggests using several drugs in his protocol to achieve the goals.... When the S1 presenting Non-Classical monocytes undergo apoptosis, the S1 protein is destroyed, and the nano clotting, inflammation, etc. go away. "
I wonder if folic acid would help, all I really know know about it is that pregnant women take it to help build strong rna, you should have a deeper look at it than l have.
i didn't take the vaxx but did catch Covid19 (I think) from touching and close contact with someone who did. Eyes felt sore, headaches..i would say Nicotine patches helped. Never smoked a cigarette in my life but moment i took nicotine i started sweating, felt light headed however and stomach felt sore but better overall. 7mg patches + coffee + 2mg nicotine gum.
@@Merogenomics dr mobeen has done a vid on autophagy and other mechanisms of fasting. well worth seeking out. very informative. been 18/6 for last 4 months. surprised that after couple of days hunger isn't a problem. no major surprises just all round feeling more together. gone into it as a lifestyle change first and foremost.
A simple tip; Any type of fasting is far, far easier if you're on a low carb diet. Personally, I've been low carb for about 3 yrs and 16-8 to omad for 2+yrs. I'm 62 and feel like I'm 35 again. :)
You are so right. It's so much easier to get past the cravings when you're sticking to meat and greens. I do full days where I wake up and go to bed on an empty stomach, and hit the gym in between and it's not even hard. Mind you I'm overweight but I'm 15lbs down in a few months and my add brain fog is gone. It's a miracle. I feel as good as I did when I weighed half as much in highschool. If a company could bottle and profit off the benefit of fasting we'd all be doing it.
You may miss out on autophagy. The body is so used to burning fat that cells will not die off so readily. Autophagy depends on stressing the body for short periods - adaptogenics. So that it kills the old cells off. They get replaced with new ones when feed again. Thought by many to be the main benefit of fasting. Also recall that a study with many nurses and COVID found that lose on vegan diets did best, vegetarian diets did well, and keto diets did badly. Often people feel better on a strict low carb diet as they cut out so much junk and eat better food. E.g. no more high sugar cereals, choc bars, pizzas etc etc That can be done on a high carb diet too. I switched to wholefoods med diet and feel great, way better than before when I was on the SAD diet. Other forms of adaptogenics are cold therapy, and exercise. The more it hurts - the better you gain. If you found it "easy" you may not be getting the benefits.
I got Delta last November. Several days of fevers etc. It was a strong cold. On the final day I was almost 100% and out of nowhere I got a tightening in my chest. It lingered for more than 3 weeks weeks and bothered me. I fasted (water only) for two days and it went completely away. Just my experience.
My 40 year old daughter got Delta about a year ago. She was well prepared, every required vitamin that is advised. She even had Ivermectin and drank tons of water and it was very hard on her. She was naturally very healthy to begin with, thank goodness. It was crazy what strange symptoms she would get and then disappear and be replaced by something else. She had terrible headaches that would last for days, then burning sore throat that would last an hour. She had burning lungs and then didn't. It was totally crazy. She returned to work Day 10 but it still took weeks to recover full strength. I had Omicron, and was equally prepared and had a much easier time of it, although I am much older, I did everything I knew to do. I was traveling about 20 days later across the country. I am so glad I never got Delta.
@@koukouvania There are over 14,000 'corona virusus', influenza sparks a fever to deal with the infection...requiring energy. When we eat 70% of our energy goes to digesting the meal. It's just my take as to why we 'starve a fever'. So.... history dictates all the old remedies and some of the new are of good use.... ie. Honey n lemon. Elderberry syrup, Rosehip syrup, Fresh herbs including pine needle and star anise tea (where the original flu vaccines were manufactured from), Camphor and eucalyptus oil, turpentine oil (from a specific pine tree...). Obviously; please do your own research....but in my humble opinion Mother Earth is brilliant.
If you have a fever you will likely not be hungry. Your body needs to heal the pathogen not digest food when a fever is present. A “cold” here means illness without fever. Perhaps they are learning it is best to fast when illness lingers despite no fever.
@@Savitar.2020 ahead of the fast, you might want to try some Nattokinase (if you haven’t already. Also a couple hours away from any meal so the protein you eat doesn’t compete for it). It’s a powerful systemic enzyme that breaks down fibrin, but it can also break down any spike protein that may be lingering somewhere. Also, I found that I had unusual clotting when I had spun my blood in a centrifuge to get Platelet Rich Fibrin and growth factors for a micro-needling facial that I’ve done a thousand times before. It was approx a month after recovering from Covid and i had a very hard time filling the vacutainer tube during my blood draw and when i pulled it out of the centrifuge after spinning it, it was already solid, which never happened before. It normally takes 20+ mins after the spin before the clot forms. When I pulled the clot out and took it apart with tweezers and foreceps to inspect this thing more closely, I found this hard rubbery white clot in the blood clot, which had insane tensile strength. So I started taking Nattokinase, N-acetylcystein for a week and then I did the fast. I decided to check my blood again after that and it was back to normal. But having “sticky blood” will wreck your body’s ability to transport oxygen which feels like dying. I guess on a level it is dying. But i wish you the best of luck with the fast and if you can, try Natto and NAC. The best type of Nattokinase is called NSK-SD. I hope you feel back to yourself soon 🙏
@@AllyGray Oh wow, that's fascinating. I've been taking NAC, but this is my first time hearing about Nattokinase! I knew that Long Covid can be caused by micro clotting, so I'll try out Nattokinase. Thank you so much for the information and the well wishes!
No vaccine, no covid,not even a cold. Fasting is wonderful. Have been doing it a long time. No food for 2 weeks just liquids. Then am Vegan so plant- based diet is healthy. Have found that my mind is very sharp also when not eating foods with their additives. Love and Light to you,Doctor! Your videos are the best!
This is an amazing video - thank you so much for making it. I woke up Monday with Covid (my daughter just had it). I immediately began a water-only fast, wanting all my body's resources to fight the virus rather than wasting energy on eating and eliminating. About 7pm on Day 3, most symptoms stopped, especially the terrible headaches and eyeaches. That's when I found this video and was encouraged that fasting was indeed beneficial against Covid. Now is end of Day 5 and I feel pretty good except for weakness, which is normal for fasting. I intend to fast for two more days, water only, to maintain the linoleic acid levels in my blood in order to interfere with any remaining Spikes. I'll end the fast after Day 7 for safety, as I was told by Dr. Goldhamer of TrueNorth Health in Santa Rosa, CA, that 7 days is safe unsupervised, but no longer that that without medical supervision.
Great to see research proving the usefulness of fasting. I fasted for 65+ hours when I had covid and was not doing great. It really helped me turn things around. I drank lots of water and took in plenty of electrolytes with no sugars as the stress on electrolytes is often why people can't withstand fasting. Beautiful view! Thanks for sharing it.
@@janeteddddd Idk what she took, but look into fasting salts for long fasts. Sodium, Potassium, Magnesium. There are recipes online to make your own too. They don't taste that great but it's important to keep your salt in check if you're fasting. Talking to a doc or nutritionist before you start can't hurt either.
I watched a video that said fasting the day before chemotherapy would help curb the side effects of it. It seems as though there are a lot of benefits of periodic fasting and intermittent fasting. I really enjoy your videos! Thank you for putting them out!
Great video - I too do the same sort of fasting as you for years now. Not realizing the benefits just seemed what my body wanted to do, your videos are packed with pertinent information I am always GRATEFUL FOR ❤
I am not vaccinated and had a mild covid two weeks ago. I have been on 168 fasting since July 2021. Thank you for all your videos and great information.
Loved it! Didn't want to leave the place. In another hike we managed to get right to the glacier and see those fissures up close. Unfortunately the video didn't work, too noisy
For whats it's worth. Im 56 at the time I experienced C. I practice fasting, Iv'e not had the V, and intend on not having any V's present and for the future. My Covid experience lasted 15 days high temps that I have not experienced ever, lost of smell, flem chest but not hash but like normal flue. Ive had omi, nothing but a small symptom of sniffles. Eat well folks, my favorite herb drink is three Ginger types boiled with lemon grass, crack of pepper. This is called Tamu Lawak, the drink is high in Zink. Take care and live to know better.
Awww, so nice of you! My goal is definitely to promote the concept of helping our immune systems through active lifestyle and psychological intervention (that is staying positive and calm in the face of constant bull that never ceases being tossed at all of us). So your comment means alot to me! Blessings!
I'm 66, carnivore, and practice intermittent fasting. When I got covid in January, it was 2-3 days of very mild symptoms. Humans have forgotten how to eat and move and thrive.
Great information and always look forward to your shared knowledge and scenery. You explain complicated information with extreme ease. I usually have zero prior knowledge to much of the information you provide and I'm fascinated with the all the discussions. Thank you and God bless.
Catholic, Orthodox have been fasting for centuries..and jews have been fasting for millenia .. God is a pretty smart cookie, if we would actually respect what he shows us how to live..❤
They (those over 8 whose health allows) fast (in partnership with praying for "whatever they are concerned with") 2 meals the first Sunday of each month and donate "at the least" the cost of those meals to the poor - (more if they are able to - which most are able to). Also they are encouraged to fast (2 meals) to accompany personal prayers during the rest of the month - if for instance they need comfort, etc. or a friend/family member is suffering or they are concerned with something else (Ukraine, Hurricane victims, personal problems, etc.) Fasting seems to enhance sincere prayers - increasing gratitude, being aware of others' needs, validating feelings of God's love, enlightenment, etc.
You are right about fasting. It worked for me. I haven’t been vaccinated and contracted Covid. I was also T2 diabetic with other comorbidities. However, because I was already doing OMAD prior to getting Covid. I was only down for 1.5 days. Had no fever but was extremely achy (back and headache). I actually did a 48-hour fast while sick, without trying. I wasn’t hungry. I believe fasting helped me recover. I have since reversed T2 diabetes and lowered Triglycerides considerably; evident in my recent bloodwork results! Thanks for the validation. I believe fasting has a lot of benefits. I’ve seen people cure cancer simply by fasting. God bless.
Heaps of long coviders are trying to fix themselves doing it. 16:8 hungry at first. But a week or so later made me feel real fast amd efficient. I was more coordinated too. Might have to try it again Fills the blood with heaps of amino acids as it breaks down the muscle. Having PKU they recommend we don't fast because of it. The blood tests do go sky high.
dr bean has done a good vid on fasting mechanisms and autophagy and covid. sorry for commenting befor watching your vid. watching now. keep em coming always look forward to your updates.
Very interesting! I was wondering why you didn’t have the beautiful scenery. You know the wind doesn’t affect your presentation just adds to the atmosphere.
I was wondering whether fasting and the ketogenic lifestyle was effect in a strong immune system. I have been doing intermittent fasting and living a ketogenic lifestyle for 3 years now and I've yet to catch COVID-19, I also did not get the j@b due to my personal medical history. I've been exposed multiple times and still no infection. Glad I chose to follow this lifestyle when I did...
Fasting, for 7-42 days. Himalayan Pink salt for electrolytes and vitamin C for metabolic support, Start with intermittent fasting first. Monitor vital signs during the fast.
@@Merogenomics I water fast twice a year for 21-42 days depending on my circumstances at the time. There are many Biblical references to such practices and for very good reason. I'm sure that in your practice that you understand the effects of insulin and cortisol and the benefits of counteracting both on the Human biological processes. I consider a 42 day fast as a "cure all",, simply because by the time you have worked up to this relatively simple regime (once practiced and understood) your body and mindset are already programmed to the aspects of calorie restriction and the huge benefits that are involved. It is only the process and practices that you have to master in order to ensure your safe passage, this is only achieved once you understand what is the elixir of Life and why it is vitally important to ensure that this practice enriches your life as opposed to taking it. A point worth noting is that I have had both Delta and Omicron variants and experienced Covid-19 symptoms with the Delta variant only. I took Metformin on the onset of the Delta variant because I understood the importance of restricting the binding mechanism of the virus using the restriction of sugar molecules long enough for my immune resistance to establish and overwelm the infection. I also used an ultrasound nebuliser to administer a Himalayan pink salt solution deep into my respiratory system (down to 1.0 micron through saturation and deep breathing). This part was purely experimental and therefore anecdotal in both instances, but I had a very mild and limited Covid-19 experience, thank the Lord, and have had no longterm effects till date. Through choice I have not been vaccinated.
I started intermittent fasting, fast for 28hrs, 6hr eating window, for just over two years now. I started this regime to attempt to reverse insulin resistance. In these last two years I have not had any COVID symptoms or tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 or had any other ‘cold’ or flu symptoms. I’m a sample of one, but, prior to fasting I often was the first in the household to come down with any respiratory virus ‘floating around’!
Excellent. Yes fasting or very low calorie diets have even turned around diabetes. Every month I fast for 5-7 days. I do this to replenish the white blood cells after around 3 days onwards. Feel amazing after 4 days. Headaches disappear completely. Whilst fasting I try to do very little cycling. Some information says you shouldn't be exercising at all. Sounds crazy but looking forward to my next fast. If doing sporadic fasting I don't eat until after 4pm.
Fasting is a common practice in the Mormon faith. It is done at anytime and used while seeking answers to prayers or in behalf of someone else’s needs (like fasting for a troubled friend or family member, a problem at work, etc.) There is one Sunday a month set apart for the entire congregation of the church to fast together.
@@curvesholladay1207 I grew up in the church so I know. The purpose of my comment was to explain there are other factors that may effect the results of the study besides fasting.
I am glad you chose this subject today. I have done many fasts between one to three weeks. To me, fast heals everything. I eliminated colds and cleaned my liver. I only drink a lot of water. I wonder if fasting could eliminate the blood clots the vaccine can create.
Thank you again for a very insightful video. Please tell your viewers where you are, and the exact location of the glacier, so we can look it up and explore on our own.
I really have learned a lot from watching your videos. Gives me things to think about. You always have the most beautiful scenery wherever you are. I wish you would tell us in case we would like to travel there. Thanks for all your hard work
Thank you very much! This was Peyto glacier near breathtaking Peyto Lake in the Jasper National Park. Peyto Lake is easily accessible but the glacier you gotta haul your ... (beloved self) up a steep steep hike, on the way to and on the way back. Great exercise! And why I always look like such a mess in my nature videos :D
@@Merogenomics awesome. I used to travel a lot, but I have lost A large percentage of my central vision which makes it more difficult. So I love when you post things because I can almost pretend I’m there! So you’re blessing people in many ways.
got 2 pfizer vaccine and every since trying to reset my body for the poison.. So I will be fasting monday and thursday the days I am most busy. I hope the spike will just leave my body.. Thankyou for this!
I recognize the problem with the mRNA rubbish… I now visit a acupuncturist twice a week but add fasting seems a good idea. How will fasting be the most effective? Waterfasting intermitt. How is the best way?
I still think having a healthy diet & keeping active is the best strategy against covid. That's what I've done & I'm the only one of my group of friends not to test positive.
I have the same sentiment. I definitely try to stay very active (hence the nature of videos as my goal is to promote and encourage exploration of nature and its beauty) and I do try to be healthy with my diet (buuuut, you know, some lapses here and there, so there is always room for improvement) ;)
What a beautiful place. I haven’t seen a glacier up front in person since I was 12 years old. I really should take my daughter somewhere where she can experience this.
Many foods are high in linoleic acids as well. Many seed oils, nuts and seeds, some vegetables, etc. There are charts online where you can find which foods have the most of this substance. However, linoleic acid is also inflammatory, so this should be considered as well. Commercial oils have usually been heated and put under tremendous pressure, and often bleached. It would probably be important to make sure the oils you eat are "cold pressed," and do not come from genetically modified seeds such as corn and canola. Getting the certified organic oils also ensures that the pesticides and herbicides used on commercial crops are absent.
Day after day, young and healthy, sudden and unexpected, doctors perplexed, little info provided, dearth of inquiry. A story with no details is like a horse with no name.
More good news! This has me feeling very optimistic. I've tried intermittent fasting, but never been able to do it for more than a few days. I have a large family and love cooking for them. Maybe, I can persuade them to join me on a fast?
Ha, ha... that's what I told the friends and members of my extended family who were concerned that my family did not take the shot. " We're in the control group of this experiment. "
Ive tested it , last time i got some infection, covid for sure, and it didnt want to go away, so my body itself decided to stop eating, only water and yogurt for 7 days. It went away, im left with some heart weakness but i think my body just knew what to do and it helped. Beautiful glacier !
@@Merogenomics Is it the article you linked in describtion? Its very interesting. Didnt hear about it from other sources , so thank you for your job once again :) Best regards :)
Thinking about your expertise, Genetics, and the problem of copy number variation we see the problem. Non of us are equal. Also the dynamism of evolution also means that none of us the same. From what I understand 20% of everyone is the same. In mind, body and soul what works for one will not work for all the rest. So there is not a unifying theory of what works for you will work for me. Blessed as we are each of us possess a gain of function and a loss of function The continual evolution of each individual will not change those facts. The is inbuilt in all of us those CNVs. By the way, I think you are a great dude and supremely smart.
I'm not making a recommendation here, but I fast using 19/5. I eat within a 5 hour window. Steadily trimming down nicely and gaining muscle. I walk and use a workout system from the late 1800s utilizing light dumbbells. Sandow and Professor Attila system. I also personally practice a very easy to learn qigong system called Baduanjin. Above all, keep stress levels low.
Wow, 19/5! I did that once when I tried to do Ramadan fasting to challenge myself (but not complete cuz I was drinking coffee). It was hard because the sunsets in Alberta at that time are super late. But I noticed that the longer I fast, the more pronounced the flavours are!!! :D
@@Merogenomics I've been on the 19/5 since June of this year. The first two weeks were somewhat challenging and on top of that I was progressively cutting out refined sugars and carbs. Temptation was around every corner 👍 Thank you for posting such important information.
I have been fasting 20 hrs a day(keto) for 2 yrs when I caught covid in Dec 21 (age 54), I didnt even know I had it until I couldn't smell the coffee, minor to no symptoms, lost taste and smell for like 5 days
Members of the church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints generally fast once a month for 2 meals, but they also don't drink alcohol and don't smoke. So that might be a factor too!
Best of luck! Yes, I started gentle. Try 12 hrs first and that includes sleep! :D So not too hard actually. Now I moved to about 16:8 on an almost daily basis
Yikes! All my life eat only 2 meals a day and no snacks and not huge meals!! Maybe this is why never was sick often! My biggest issues is genetics with autoimmune that did so much damage due to lack of thyroid testing!!!!
So it appears to me that the benefit of fasting is it reduces the sugar in your system. As per your previous video, oligosaccharides at the cellular level are beyond important, the same with sialyic acids So the benefit derives from stopping the overload of sugar, the over production of PTMs and then returning the body to a keto state, which its natural disposition. The pentose phosphate pathway is more important than the citric acid cycle. I hope this makes sense
ahem, you are the second person I see today to ask that. This is Peyto glacier in Jasper National Park. One of the most gorgeous nature spots in the world based on my very biased opinion ;)
I’m so happy I ended up here. Someone on some podcast recommended this to follow. Unfortunately I have probably had Covid about 3 times. I’m not vaccinated and I live a healthy lifestyle and I do intermittent fasting. I regularly take the melatonin, NAC, zinc….etc. I get the same symptoms every time and it usually has me down for one to two weeks till I’m 💯. I’m presently recovering now from my latest bout. It’s a bit disheartening….I’m not an unhealthy person. I am concerned about the effects the virus might be having on me, but I do not want anything to do with those vaccines. They are still getting sick as well.
Ohh and we are so happy you found us. We completely understand that you have concerns about your experiences with COVID-19 and your hesitancy toward vaccination. It can be disheartening to go through multiple bouts of illness despite leading a healthy lifestyle. It's important to note that a healthy lifestyle, including measures like intermittent fasting, and taking supplements such as melatonin, NAC, and zinc, can support overall health, and you are doing great for taking that route. Keep it up. And remember it is important to respect our own biology, which is complex I too often get infected, but i try to not let it get me down. :)
Interesting. Milk is chockers with linoleic acid. And di-saccrharide. At the end of the day, milk has a net benefit. What one should do is supplement with omega 3 and aspirin
Thank you so much - I wondered why - knock on wood - I have not gotten Covid while my family members have (very mild with stuffy nose and low fever under 100F with ivermectin). Fasting could be what has been protecting me.
I don't know if I ever saw that one before. Couldn't remember. I have crossed the icefield that produces these glaciers couple times (with a guide) but that was so long ago I can't remember the exact routes I have taken. I am assuming this was the first time I laid my eyes on this particular glacier (we have so many here in the Canadian Rockies)
My Company is based in Windsor ON. 😜 I'm in Biotech and LOVE IT, my next fascination is the study of stable phenotypic changes that do not involve alterations in the DNA sequence, known more commonly as Epigenetics.
Did we know at what tissue temperature did SARS COV2 better replicate? After virologist Christian Drosten to replicate better SARS COV2 in different tissues in lab. .must decrease incubator temperature to 34 (?)35 degreeC (sept 2020)(TWiV 659 at min29) Did fever mitigate SARS COV2 infection?
Clever. I had never thought of that. Here's how BARD AI answers your question: "Yes, vitamin D is stored in fat cells. When fat cells are broken down, the stored vitamin D is released into the bloodstream. This is why people who are obese are more likely to be vitamin D deficient, as their bodies have more fat cells to store vitamin D in. However, the amount of vitamin D released from fat cells during fasting is not very significant. A study published in the journal "Nutrition and Metabolism" found that fasting for 12 hours released only about 10% of the stored vitamin D. So, while fasting may help to slightly increase vitamin D levels, it is not a reliable way to get enough vitamin D."
That was the plan! ;) Reward those who stuck it out till the end. I couldn't do it any other way anyway cuz the wind is always howling around these glaciers.
You are absolutely right! Correlations are often reported precisely so further studies can be undertaken to confirm if it is real effect or not. As a consequence, science is full of ambiguities that can create TONS of misunderstandings. Including by "experts"
